In recent weeks, Theory began calling out Cena in promos after it was announced that the future Hall of Famer would be appearing on Monday Night Raw this week in his hometown of Boston.<\/p>\n<p class>Cena is undoubtedly one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time, though he only makes sporadic appearances at this stage in his career after successfully transitioning to an acting career.

The 25-year-old is a two-time United States Champion and a former Money in the Bank winner.
